Throughout the 1970s, the Wild Samoans competed for the CanadianStampede Wrestling promotion, where they received supplementary training from Stu Hart, and for numerous National Wrestling Alliance affiliates. In 1978, the Wild Samoans traveled to Japan and competed for the International Wrestling Alliance, winning the IWA Tag Team Championship.[5]

The Wild Samoans wrestled in Mid-South Wrestling and Jim Crockett Promotions
before returning to the WWF in 1983 and regaining the WWF World Tag
Team Championship. When Sika suffered an injury, the tag team was
supplemented by Anoa'i's son Samu. The trio remained in the WWF until 1984.[8] Anoa'i returned to the WWF for a third time in 1992 as the manager of The Headshrinkers, Samu and Anoai's nephew Fatu. Anoa'i remained with the WWF until 1994.
